About this video

Anthony Panagakos details the Sling-T running game that carried Port Richmond High School past 3,000 rushing yards in a season. Seven plays make up the package: the Sweep, which sets up everything else, plus the Trap, Wham, Wham Keep, Wham Option, Power and Counter. Coach Panagakos explains the blocking assignments and individual responsibilities for each, how to run them against different fronts and why the fakes have to be right so the plays all look the same to the defense. The scheme is built to work with average-sized offensive linemen.

Frequently asked questions

Which running plays are covered?

Seven Sling-T runs: Sweep, Trap, Wham, Wham Keep, Wham Option, Power and Counter. Coach Panagakos gives the blocking assignments and individual responsibilities for each, shows how they are run against different fronts and explains why the Sweep sets up the rest.

Will it work for a team with small linemen?

That is one of the main teaching points. Coach Panagakos explains why the Sling-T running game is effective with average-sized or undersized offensive linemen, relying on deception and proper fakes rather than size.
